Automated support for rearing young cattle: With the GEA Calf Feeders, you benefit from controlled, healthy calf growth – suitable for every herd size and every agricultural business.
The calf feeders provide individual drinking curves to ensure your calves get the nutrition they need. You can use the easy to operate manual terminal to program new values so that each calf gets the perfect feed for them. You have a clear view over everything in the feeding station: A transparent funnel makes it easy to see the fill level and you can adjust the portions in just a few moments. The feeders have an auto-calibration feature which checks and regulates the weights of the portions. How you benefit: The process is fully automated.
GEA provides individual system solutions for all agricultural businesses. Each calf feeder offers different specifications and benefits. The C400 smart automated feeder can be used as a fresh milk, milk powder or combined machine. It can hold up to 35 kg of powder and is designed for operations with a maximum of 50 animals. The V600 smart can be used with either milk powder or as a combined machine, and the V640 smart for either fresh milk or a combination.
